Boston -- Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today that the club has recalled left-winger Jeremy Reich from the Providence Bruins of the American Hockey League (AHL) on an emergency basis. Reich will be with the Bruins tonight for their game against the Washington Capitols.

Reich, who was signed by Boston as a free agent on August 30, 2005, made his Bruins debut in the club’s 4-3 overtime win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday night in Raleigh, NC. He was assigned back to Providence on Sunday.

This season Reich has played 46 games, and tallied four goals and seven assists for the Providence Bruins.

Reich, 27, from Craik Saskatchewan, was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks in the second round (39th overall) in the 1997 NHL Entry Draft. He signed with Columbus as a free agent on May 17, 2000 and saw his only NHL action when he played nine games for the Blue Jackets during the 2003-2004 season. During that stretch in the NHL, Reich had one assist.

The Black and Gold return to action tonight when the club travels to Washington, DC to take on the Capitols at 7:00 p.m. ET.

The Bruins return to the TD Banknorth Garden on Thursday night when they host the Hurricanes at 7:00 p.m. ET. This Thursday is a Student Night. Each Thursday all high school and college students are eligible for one half-price ticket in the $45.50 and $55.00 price range with a valid student ID.

Tickets are available for all home games online by clicking here, at the TD Banknorth Garden Box Office, all Ticketmaster outlets, or by phone at 617.624.BEAR.
